Arizona weekly enterprise., 1887-10-29
In Good aIth.
Hoof and Horn,

Throughout Arizona the ever faithful press are still wearily urging capital to come and invest in its resources, and the summons IS beng answered. During the early part of the present year many men of money came to look at the opportuni- ties presented for business openings and to-day they are among us. The GIla and Salt River sections are among the favored ones, and show that activity Tn land and other transactions as to warrant the sus- taining of mary thousand of souls and the creation of bustling and active com nunities for all time to come. The inn mense ditches that are being cut through a country heretofore considered worth less real estate transactions Tn the towns and vast ranges purchased on the outside show the condition of affairs that nothing else than California boom could have brought about for Arizona. Still in the face of this there are many Arizona jour nalists sending out reports of collapse in the transactions of our neighbor and trying to "hold- up" the Easterner as he passes on Such actions prejudice in- vestors against the country, and will re- suit in loss where otherwise if nothing had been sad or done, nothing would have been lost. It IS characteristic of many Arizona journals to boastfully rep resent the advantages of their own re- spectiye sections without word in favor of any other community. We are in favor of the entire territory and the par ticular resources that each lays claims to We depend on the prosperity like that which California is now experiencing and earnestly hope it will continue until meseuit and cactus land W ill be as eager ly sought and reclaimed as some of the lands which recently went at fabulous prices on the very borders of the desert but which in reality are like thiatle to the lily when compared to the fertility of Arizona valley lands. We want the rush of eastern investors to continue on un- ceasingly to California. It IS poor net that will not hold some fish. Some oi them will retrace their steps and come tc Arizona, as is alrea ady the case, to invest in a market whereinducements are great CT and person is not smothered with four columns of figures as the price on 6 short acre of land. In stock raising agriculture, mining and all other pur
 suits the territory is young when com pared to the amount of capital invested in each. Then let the work be for tht whole and nothing else than prosperity over the entire land will be experienced one industry close rival to the other
 instead of particular boost to particu | lar act or cause

The Charities of the G. A. R.

We'll, words arc facts, when they an- nOunce great principles. But the Order has something else to show. It is doing a grand and noble work in charity to the families of deceased and dependent sol diers. For this year the actual report ed outlay exceeds $253, ,O0O: but if we reckon the amounts paid for the same purpose and never reported, it is fair to say tn at not less than half million dol lars have been thus expended. During the sixteen years from 1871 to 1886, the sum of S1, IFS, ,688. 60 has been distribut- ed in charities; and as it is well known that one half is not reported, there can be no exaggeration in saying that twlce that amount has thus been spent.
 Is may, indeed, be doubted whether this Order does not give greater per- centage of it's receipts, if not larger to- tai amount in charity, than any other or ganization, religious or secular. There are no distributing agents in the Order. All the money disbursed in charity Is gi 7. en directly to the needy recipients; the families of deceased soldiers, or those depending on soldiers who, because of disease or wounds, are unable to provide for their families; and in some instances, to the soldiers themselves.-Gen Lucius Fairchild, in The American Magazine for November.
